Fulton, Mo.— William Woods golf sweeps Student-Athlete of the Month honors with Josie Arms (women's) and Victor Vella (men's) bringing home the honors.  

Arms, a sophomore from Columbia, had an excellent month of October. She finished the month with a T-1st place finish at the CC Cougar Invite with a +13 scoreline. She earned an eighth-place finish at the highly reputable Virginia McCoy Invitational, which featured top talent from across the region. Opening the month, Arms shot +15 at the Missouri Baptist Open which was good enough for a sixth-place finish. Arms was awarded Heart of America Athletic Conference Golfer of the Week for her finish at Columbia College.  

Vella, also a Heart of America Golfer of the Week honoree in October, was excellent throughout the month as well. The highlight of the month was a four-under-par performance at The National Golf Club in the Virginia McCoy Invitational that earned him first in the competitive tournament. At Columbia College, Vella shot even over the two-day event, which was good enough for a T-3 finish; just two strokes behind the leader. In the first tournament of the month, Vella shot two-over at the Missouri Baptist Open which found him in a T-5 place spot.

Each month, athletes are nominated by faculty, staff, and school personnel.
